Gladys also had a brother, Albert born 1901. Sadly both Albert and Nellie died when only a few months old. They are both buried with their grandfather and other members of the family in Hindley Cemetery.
Gladys also had two sisters and a half sister born in Somerset, Gunnison County, Colorado. The two sisters, Martha born 1908 and Christabelle born 1910 died at the age of 14. Martha in 1922 and Christabelle in 1924. Both are buried in the Cemetery in Somerset. The half sister, Evelyn Frances Boultbee became a nurse and lived in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Thank you Roger. She also had a brother Albert he passed away age 6 months on Betley st Platt Bridge in 1902. Her sister Nellie of 2 Barrell Rock was laid to rest 1906 in Hindley cemetery with her brother Albert, her Grandparents and cousins. Gladys left with her mother, her aunt and cousin in 1907 as kindly confirmed by Dennis and I do have another photo with a story to share.
